Zo Jacobi is a Jewish practitioner working to create spaces for Jewish mythology, mysticism, and practice online. Born in Los Angeles, she grew up surrounded by magic and now runs Jewitches, a blog, social media community, podcast and shop dedicated to making magic accessible. Zo resides in Los Angeles with her partner and their two very spoiled cats.
In this episode, Zo shares some of the history surrounding the label of "witch" and its roots in anti-semitism and misogyny. We also discuss the Jewish Kabbalah and Christian Cabala systems, and why their integration into the Tarot by non-Jewish people is complicated.
